The Atlas of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology presents an extensive case collection of both common and less common conditions of the jaws and teeth. Focusing on the essentials of radiologic interpretation, this is a go-to companion for clinicians in everyday practice who have radiologically identified a potential abnormality, as well as a comprehensive study guide for students at all levels of dentistry, surgery and radiology.

• Unique lesion-based problem solving chapter makes this an easy-to-use reference in a clinical setting
• Includes 2D intraoral radiography, the panoramic radiograph, cone beam CT, multidetector CT and MRI
• Multiple cases are presented in order to demonstrate the variation in the radiological appearances of conditions affecting the jaws and teeth
• Special focus on conditions where diagnostic imaging may substantially contribute to diagnosis
• Features a useful chapter covering the temporomandibular joint

CHAPTER 1
Problem Solving Diagrams

1.1 Opaque and largely opaque conditions related to the jaws

For conditions affecting the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses, upper airway morphology, skull base and cervical spine, please refer to the dedicated chapters.

On plain films, including panoramic and cephalometric radiographs, soft tissue calcifications may be projected over the jaws (see Chapter 16).

Common conditions

• Reactive sclerosis related to a periapical inflammatory lesion (see section 5.1)
• Bone island (see section 7.4)
• Exostoses (see section 7.3)
• Torus palatinus (see section 7.1)
• Torus mandibularis (see section 7.2)
• Ectopic teeth (see section 3.4)
• Chronic pericoronitis (see section 5.3)
• Supernumerary teeth (see section 3.1)
• Cemento‐osseous dysplasia including periapical osseous dysplasia (see section 9.2)
• Pulp stones (see section 3.21)
• Hypercementosis (see section 3.22)
• Odontoma (see section 10.3)
• Dens invaginatus (see section 3.11)
• Fibrous dysplasia (see section 9.1)
• Enamel pearl (see section 3.9)
• Talon cusp (see section 3.10)

Less common conditions

• Osteoma (see section 10.10)
• Malignant lesions including metastatic disease (see sections 11.1–11.3)
• Chronic osteomyelitis (see section 5.4)
• Ossifying fibroma (see section 9.3)
• Cementoblastoma (see section 10.9)
• Osteoblastoma (see section 10.14)
• Osteoid osteoma (see section 10.15)
• Paget disease of bone (see section 13.5)
• Osteopetrosis (see section 15.2)

Figure 1.1 (a) Representation of the jaws and teeth and (b) larger representation of the fully erupted tooth. Conditions that have a predilection for certain regions of the jaws and teeth are shown. Note: (1) These lesions are not necessarily more common than other conditions. See the text for lists of common and less common conditions. (2) Most of these lesions also occur elsewhere within the jaws. (3) The pointers identify a region, not a specific site.

1.2 Lucent lesions of the jaws

For conditions affecting the TMJ, nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses, upper airway morphology, skull base and cervical spine, please refer to the dedicated chapters.

Common conditions

• Caries (see section 4.1)
• Periodontal bone loss (see section 5....
